Actually Ravana was a great scholar politician, commander of architecture as well as Ravana, a scholar of many knowledge related to science. Through his accomplishment and tapobal, he had acquired a lot of elusive powers in his life, due to which he was known to perform Indrajal, Tantra Mantra, Hypnosis and many types of magic.

Birth and family of Ravana

If we talk about the family of Ravana, then Ravana is one of the descendants of Lord Brahma. Brahma Ji had many sons, out of which the name of his tenth son was Anam Prajapati Pulatsya. Ravana's father Rishi Vishrava is a very great learned Pandit who always followed the path of religion, being a descendant of Brahma, Ravana was the great grandson of Lord Brahma. Muni Vishrava had two marriages during his life, his first wife was Varvanini and second wife was KKC. His first wife Varavnini gave birth to a son, whom you know today as Kubera. Yes, only those who are considered the kings of all the treasures of the world. And his second wife Kaikesi conceived at inauspicious times and gave birth to ferocious demons like Kumbhakaran, Shrupankha and Ravana. But a positive work also happened to him when he gave birth to Vibhishan. Vibhishan was a person of a very natural nature even after being born in the demon clan.

Marriage of Ravana

Though there were thousands of queens living in the Raniwas in Ravana's palace, but his first marriage was the son of Diti, whose daughter's name was Mandodari. Mandodari originated from the womb of an apsara named Hema. It is also told in the mythological history that Mandodari was from an area near Jodhpur in Rajasthan named Mandore. He was married to Ravana after which he gave birth to many sons, the main of which were Indrajit, Madohar, Prahst, Virupaksha and Bhikam Veer. Also, Ravana's sister Shurpanakha was married by Bhima Ravana, Shurpanakha's husband's name was Demon Raj Vidhu, son of the demon Raj Kalka.

Did Ravana have 10 seers?

By the way, you all know that Ravana, also known as Dashanan, had 10 heads. But by applying technology, it is not possible for any human being to have 10 heads, in such a situation even if Ravan is knowledgeable, but it was not under his control to have 10 heads. It is said in our scriptures that Ravana did not have 10 heads but looked confused. Now you will think that how can we tell that in fact, Ravana used to wear a beautiful garland made of nine gems around his neck, in which there were large pearls of Navratna, his shine was so intense that each diamond had a different head of Ravana. Was seen On seeing which only one and nine indirect heads of Ravana were also seen together. Due to which Ravana loved to be called Dashaanan and the fear of his 10 heads was overshadowed by the three people. It is also said that Ravana was an elusive person, due to which he used to reveal himself automatically when one of his heads was cut off.

How did Ravana's life come to the navel?

You will know this sentence, how Lord Rama killed Ravana, yes when Lord Rama was not able to kill Ravana during the war and Ravana was constantly showing his illusion in the battlefield, then see Lord Rama worried. Vibhishan came forward and said that Lord Ravana's life is kept in his navel in a nectar vase, if you attack his navel, then only Ravana can die. In the old it is said that Ravana wanted to be immortal, due to which he did austerity of Lord Brahma for years, after which Lord Brahma gave him a boon and placed his life urn in his navel. Due to this, Ravana became immortal according to his wish, but it was not possible that he did not die.

You must have heard that during the staging of the Ramayana, Ravana is addressed as the winner of the Trilok, after all, let us know why. In fact, Ravana, on the basis of his policies, invaded the main states around him such as Ang Island, Malay Island, Varahadweep, Shankh Island, Kush Island, Yashdeep and Andhra Pradesh. Then came the number of Lanka. At that time, the kingdom of Kubera was established on Lanka. Kubera, who was also Ravana's half-brother, defeated him from Lanka, and Ravana drove him away from there and took control of Lanka himself.

After escaping from there, Kubera started living in the area around Mount Kailash, now known as Tibet. At that time, Kubera also had a Pushpak Vimana which moved at the speed of mind and could be carried anywhere by flying in the air which Ravana snatched from Kubera. After that Ravana invaded Indraloka to establish his dominion, after which Ravana's son Meghnath defeated Indra and took Indraloka, after which Meghnath was also known as Indrajit. From then on, Ravana was addressed by saying the name of Trilok the conqueror.

Features of Pushpak Vimana

  1. The entire program of making Pushpak was done by Rishi Aadhaar and Vishwakarma also contributed in its construction. With the cooperation of both, such an unimaginable Pushpak aircraft was invented during that time.
  2. The Pushpak Vimana was a different type of aircraft that could be enlarged as small as it wished.
  3. At one time, a lot of people could easily be carried from one place to another by flying in Pushpak aircraft.
  4. Four major airports of Ravana's Pushpak aircraft were found by the search department of Sri Ramayana Research Committee named Sanwara Gurulopotha, Totupolakanda, and Variapola. Of all these airports, one airport was demolished by Hanuman ji at the time of Lanka Dahan named Usangoda Airport.
  5. The Pushpak Vimana, flying at the speed of mind, could easily be moved from one place to another within a few minutes.

Arun Samhita: - Arun Samhita is mostly known as Lal Kitab. This book has been translated into many languages. According to mythology, this book was provided by Arun, the charioteer of Surya, to Lanka husband Ravana which contains many facts related to horoscopes, palmistry and Samudra Shastra.

  9. Want to know about the burning of Lanka by burning Lanka, read here the story of Lanka combustion

History is the witness that it is said that a person has both good and bad qualities, he does not need to speak about his qualities because his actions only reveal his qualities. According to God, a person should only keep doing the deeds achieved in his life, neither should he worry about the fruits nor should he walk on the path of unrighteousness. After walking on the path of unrighteousness, Ravana was not able to save his life, then we are just an ordinary human being. If we want to make our life hell by adopting the path of unrighteousness, then we will adopt the path of unrighteousness, otherwise God has done many ways for us Are built on which we can achieve goodwill.
